mourning. and un forensic teams begin examining the bodies of iceland victims in the u.c.d. town in northern iraq on paul race for the sport as lewis hamilton equals michael schumacher is recorded with his eight pole position the australian in going for it . but first new zealand is in mourning following mass shootings at two mosques in christchurch forty nine people were killed more than forty others are still in hospital some of them are in a critical condition now the main suspect has been charged with murder and he is twenty eight year old brenton tyrant he didn't enter a plea nor did he seek bail he'll be back in court early next month well police have searched his home which is in the nearby town of the need and two homemade bombs have been found. earlier in his car a nearby homes have been evacuated as

a precaution the prime minister just a day and she has promised to introduce tougher gun laws following the attack and she's been meeting leaders of new zealand's muslim community she offered her condolences and assured them of support from the government. the right. for freedom to. thank. freedom to express your caution. live now to christchurch and our correspondent there wayne hey wayne it's in the early hours of the morning it's more than twenty four hours now since new zealand one of new zealand's darkest days still people in that community must be trying to absorb the detail of what's happened. yes you're right it is in the early hours of the morning just gone two o'clock in

the morning and finally we've seen the first signs that this place here this police cordon which ultimately leads down to the mosque where most of the people were killed on friday that syria has gone quiet up until just a few moments ago really there were still a few people coming here in the early hours of the morning to pay their respects to lay flowers there are hundreds of bouquets flowers there messages of support to the family members of those who have been killed in this tragedy and throughout the course of saturday there were streams of people coming here to do just that many of them simply standing there staring at the flowers staring at the messages reading exactly what other people have said shedding many tears many of these people did not know the people who were killed in the mosque or the family members of those victims but they were simply christchurch residents concerned residents that this all fall acted happened in this city in the country so it will take

a very long time for this relatively small city to come to terms with exactly what happened on friday and gradually way way where becoming more aware of who exactly were the victims but there are still many people who remain unaccounted for and so the families are having to endure even more agony as they wait to find out definitively what's happened to their relatives. yes well i think must of been a very difficult time obviously officially all of them are still listed as unaccounted for we know that there is one person that has been confirmed dead a man by the police but his name was actually suppressed by the courts on saturday morning around the same time that the main suspect brinton terrine appeared in court before the judge and was charged with one count of murder but increasingly regarding the victims we are hearing more and more stories now are coming out in

the local media in particular of family members talking about those who were inside the mosques at the time and some of the tales of heroism for example the sons of a seventy one year old man saying that this particular gentleman acted or tried to act as a barrier as a shield to protect other people inside the mosque from being attacked by the gunmen but he himself was shot did he is a former afghanistan resident i came here as a refugee very active in the refugee community in christchurch particularly in the afghan community also hearing about a new zealand sports representative a thirty three year old his family has been speaking about his death inside one of the mosques as well he represented new zealand and also this province of canterbury in the sport of football so yes these horrific stories these tragic stories will no

doubt continue in the days and weeks ahead you know and we will ultimately i guess starting probably on sunday begin to get official confirmation of some of those names that are being killed inside those moss wayne hale live in christchurch new zealand thank you. well as we've already mentioned the main suspect brenton tyrant who appeared in court in new zealand is actually an australian and he comes from the city of grafton yeah rabu melhem has been there to find out more about him. and this is a community in shock tyrant spent the first twenty years of his life in grafton it's a sleepy regional town in country new south wales and we spoke with the arch dane of the anglican church here and he said that. the community can't believe that one of their own could be involved in an attack like this distressed parishioners have been calling in all day on saturday asking what it is they can do about the attack

the we also spoke with the deputy mayor and he says that this community is one that has fallen on hard times recently economically with the loss of industry and now has to contend with the fact that is going to be associated with the attack in christ church on sunday there will be a number of church services where the community will come together will be a lot of soul searching but also a show of support for the victims in christchurch where the prime minister has received messages of condolence from many leaders around the world including the us president donald trump i spoke with donald trump this morning he sought to costa rica he very much wish for his condolences to be passed on to new zealand he asked for support the united states could spread wide my message was sympathy and love for all muslim communities. well to the surprise of many

president trump played down the threat posed by white supremacists i think it's a small group of people that have very very serious problems i guess if you look at what happened in new zealand perhaps that's a case i don't know enough about it yet they're just learning about the person and the people involved but it's certainly a terrible thing terrible thing all right let's speak now to jason stanley who's professor of philosophy at yale university he's author of how fascism was nice joining us now via skype from new haven in connecticut thank you very much for talking to us many people following the new zealand mosque shootings pointing to the conduct of the main suspect online in particular and the publishing of a rant for want of the better word and rationale if you like to his actions that were to come and indeed confessing to be a white supremacist my question really is how far do you think this is on the rise

this this fall right ideology that is often leading to violence it would appear that well in the manifesto he expresses very clear up no nationalism so he says he's fine with jews as long as they are in israel he's fine with muslims as long as they're in barren land and i think we are definitely seeing act now nationalism or as our demand past ourselves fascism we're seeing fascism arising as our legitimate ideology in multiple countries are i mean we saw victor our bond our speech just hours after this event speaking of the threat to european christianity from immigration indeed there is there are quite a few populist leaders now that have come to the fore in europe sell the need for one in italy and of course your very own president trump at what point does populism become fascism. i don't like the term populism because i think it's

too big you know but it can refer to leaders who are not nationalist and i think we need to focus on different problems and the problem for me is at the nationalism is the idea that that one group of people are from one of necessity or perhaps one religion should be the dominant people in a land and we see this in india with b j p we see this in the united states with my president and we see this in multiple countries in israel so this this shooter this killer was motivated by some of the worst of the atco nationalist rhetoric our terms like you know my president used the term determined invasion are the this is rhetoric that enables violence and what should concern indeed so where does the responsibility lie would you say to harness this because it seems is there an awful lot of results and attention has been put in trying to curb the radicalization of

young muslim people but what about the altar right far right at the nationalists is still calling them what about them they seem to be led left to a free rein to populate certain areas over the internet and then as we've seen on several occasions now to complete their ideological mission in violence. right so we have on the one hand the is extreme violent eruptions like auditors braddock who are tearing take says his model are the squirrel helper killer in the united states and all of them channel the same ideology but one of my concerns is that this is an ideology that is being sanctified as it were from multiple world leaders at no nationalism is something we hear from lots of sources are hindu

muslim christian jewish you know and white white supremacy so when you see people talking about our minority group says invaders are we saw the truck of our the rape of our women know it's a section in america about it about that we see my president speak of you know immigrant great guests when we see these for milieu or tropes these unable violence and you know these are the our leaders can can wash their hands of it as much as they want they can say what i say in beijing by rapists gang members i'm not i'm not yeah graphic violence absolutely language really matters doesn't it when it comes to these issues in this so-called manifesto i'm reluctant to use that term because it's a it's a bunch of incoherent ramblings from what i've been able to see he refers directly to president trump and refers to him as a symbol of renewed white identity this sounds awfully dangerous. it is awfully to

send it's dangerous when it's legitimated from on high because what do you do to invaders i mean you know this is what in rwanda when they called people were called to see snakes what do you do just snakes so i don't understand how you can use vocabulary that permits violence and wash and some of the consequences so ultimately i mean i repeat the question whose responsibility is it to curb what seems to be a growing tide of violence perpetrated by the far right white supremacists right i mean i think it's our it should be an emerge to see what we're seeing in these parts of everywhere but unfortunately it poses something of a crisis because we have no nationalist leaders we have that certainly people who are at least dark wessling of nationalism they might deny it they might say no i just mean nationalism i don't mean at the nationalism but we need explicit

repudiation of this ideology we need explicit do not see asians of as. explicit denunciations of white nationalism and we need people to stop referring to other human beings as the invaders are and as the right name dominant traditions we need some frankly some liberalism jason stanley good to talk to you professor of philosophy at yale university thank you. thank you very much we've got lots more to come in this news hour including. nigeria's government begins the demolition of many unsafe building is in lagos after a school collapsed. the monsoon season is about to start here in bangladesh and there are around a million refugees living in these camps in kompas bizarre i'm stephanie decker and all breaks played into what dangers these hot and nice people face once the rains

hundreds of soldiers who've been besieged by the taliban around seven hundred troops are surrounded in bag this province that's on the border with turkey menaced they took refuge after the taliban overran overran more than a dozen checkpoints on friday afghan forces have been battling the taliban in this specific region for almost two weeks now thirty soldiers have been killed forty of them have been taken hostage. un forensic teams are started to exude bodies from mass graves around the northern iraqi town of sin its source that more than three thousand people from the minority yes the group were killed by isong when they moved in five years ago victoria gave him the reports. forensic scientists search for evidence of human remains in kojo village on the outskirts of sin john as the

wettest parts of the country. john katun son helps her carry sand up to where they now live a small basic hut in the biggest refugee camp in the world we spotted her picking up sand at the bottom of a hill this she tells us is to prepare for the upcoming monsoon season only had to go out of the concern for us is that the water will come inside the home plus it erodes this soil around the home and it still continuing to erode the children sometime slip and fall so we are paving the place we send almost one million rohingya refugees live here having fled me and margarine the government crackdown in august of two thousand and seventeen this will be their third monsoon season away from home one of the main concerns of the monsoon season are landslides and that's because many of these huts the been built on slopes and you can see the sandbags have been used here to try and hold the ground but when the rains come

you'll think rancho water pouring down the slopes many people will tell you that these hearts which are made out of bamboo in tar poland will stand little chance but we're told reinforcement work has taken place on vulnerable areas and a whole new campus been built with stronger homes the ground too is getting extra help these are called soil retention walls all this in an effort to prevent landslides and allow the expected deluge of water to drain of quickly. sanjeeda was recently moved to this hut and she shares the space with her husband and six children that have a good deal about a little earlier our previous home had taught pauline which was blown away during the storm we fixed it with a double layer it was also located in all flat land but this one is on higher ground a much more protected. there are many aid agencies operating here the size of the camps means that this is more like a city but without the resources to cope with the same number of people and last

year we really created twenty six twenty six thousand refugees who are especially vulnerable and there are places. and that was a good measure this year we hope that the number of much much smaller because we have strengthened the number of the south as here we have one more year of experience and that's why we have been kind of optimistic what is certain is that the rains will come high winds will pound these huts and the ground will turn wet and muddy but what's less certain is what will happen to all these people now living here stephanie decker in the refugee camps of cox is bizarre. now the opponents of albanians government holding another rally against what they call a corrupt political system and as our correspondent john psaropoulos reports from the capital they all calling for a snap election as well as the resignation of the prime minister and for what they

claim is drunk traffic is controlling the government they want an end to that. at least twenty thousand people have gathered here today they stretch from scandal. to the prime minister's office that's a distance of half a kilometer a very broad avenue packed with people here and they are unhappy at the corruption that they say pervades the government at all levels including daily services provided by the state but going all the way up to the cabinet which has now shifted to ministers for drug related offenses and prime minister has reshuffled it twice in an effort to show that there is renewal that there are new faces but these people are not convinced they say corruption goes all the way up to the prime minister the democratic party is calling on him to resign it wants to hold a general election. two years early and it also wants to bypass

a local election that is scheduled for the end of june it simply wants this government to resign to make it turn itself into a caretaker government and wait for a fresh mandate from the people and of course the democratic party has already walked out of last month they are no longer part of the constitutional political process they have taken to the streets. and they want to gather evidence. in order to show the government that it must go. it will become too politically unstable to govern and it appears to be winning. because this gathering is from what we're hearing in the previous ones that took place last month. maybe. that albania will. likely heading to a crucial june deadline when the european council whether to invite this country to open membership talks in the european union that is the deadline against which all

of this political pressure is ramping up. the nigerian government has started to knock down buildings in the commercial capital lagos just days after a building collapse which killed twenty people are many of them were children officials say they're trying to save lives but angry residents say they're being unfairly targeted. brick by brick. workers start dismantling old buildings in central a cost dozens marked for demolition. the narrow alleys here mean heavy machines can't get access so the work is carried out manually three government since the buildings i dangerous. billeted tests on about it just talk just. that you've been through. this doctor thank you for forty years old sometimes the size of parts all of course you know because of the dead

weight of the juice that mubarak up assets in my not be able to sustain this front and they must come back. and drew residents say they want given enough notice they accuse officials of using them to set an example after the recent tragedy where more than a dozen schoolchildren right killed with their school building collapsed. to . a lady who was. for many residents it's too late to salvage anything. government officials say many buildings from this narrow streets are in dangerous condition which is why they are being pulled down but critics say official corruption is a reason why such buildings were allowed to be built in the first place shoddy

construction work is blamed for killing nearly two hundred people here in lagos state alone about a past six years. the city is growing fast there is an insatiable demand for homes and businesses experts want the government to enforce building regulations on specific areas it will be linked primarily to. misuse of structural. all regulated extensions of buildings. faulty. construction. defective so there quite a lot of it's a complex thing the number of sheer number of developments without. professionals without proper professional advice and involvement so that's primary experts are warning that unless the force meant to building codes the stepped up and unsafe buildings are pulled down quickly more lives could be lost sooner rather

than later. al-jazeera lagos. right it's time for the weather now and everton's here and your tracing the progress on your of that terrible stillness done so much damage in both malawi m.s. m b yeah that's right martine the good news is the winds have a significantly we are not concerned about the winds anymore but your member it's been such a slow moving system and because moves so slowly it's picked up huge amounts of moisture over the mozambique channel and it's throwing down huge amounts of moisture as well be taking the satellite picture this is the position of the storm as i said it's been moving incredibly slowly it's only just made its way south of the storm has only just made its way across the over the border into zimbabwe but the main thrust of all the heavy rain the thickest cloud still there across central parts of mozambique and that's where we're going to see the worst of the weather was we go through much of this week hashmi the next three days we could see as much

as half a meter of rainfall so we're very much in the mix here we are going to see further widespread flooding major problems are set to continue this is the situation through the remainder a saturday going on into sunday that same area seeing more heavy rain then pull in the morris chair once again from the mozambique channel so further outbreaks of heavy rain to come it really is a case of spot the difference sunday going on into monday again further showers rolling their way through on of brighton though i do suspect those showers will be somewhat lighter as we go on through monday and the remainder of the way but we are going to see further downpours through the next five six maybe seven days martin so further flooding to cause further problems as we go through the coming days. evident thank you very much still to come here on the al-jazeera news good samaritans more on the church in the us that helps desperate migrants in need of

with the crowds of tahrir square to all three. of us if something happens anywhere in the world al-jazeera is in place we're able to cover news like no other news organizations. were able to do it properly. that is our strength. you know with al-jazeera this is the news a reminder of main stories the gunman arrested after new zealand's mosque attacks has now been charged with murder twenty eight year old brenton tyrant didn't enter

a plea nor seek a better bail forty nine people died in shootings at two mass in christ church on friday. a makeshift memorials been set up in the cities or pay tribute to the victims messages of condolence and condemnation coming in from around the world. the prime minister has met the muslim community in christchurch to offer sympathy support and reassurance she's promising tougher gun laws after it emerged the suspect had legally obtained five guns including automatic weapons. some survivors of friday's attack of been telling our correspondent andrew thomas about how they managed to escape. after the violent frenzy the flowers all day on saturday people came to lay them in tribute to the dead and then stand. and weep. among those gathered were survivors and

their stories one fifteen. who had breached started his. three or four minutes into. when he heard the shots. noises coming near so then they decided to. trade and jump on my wife tried to support his best friend sister linda and when she tried to talk shit like that. one of coming you know on their hands my wife it's injured here and so i wanted to go to linda and linda is right one of my friend he is from india no it was him run it was short one blood on his shoulder so i was holding him and then the gun gunmen going through the window and shot him while he was on my level

he shook him couple of rocks in the head he was a teen people of. all when he finished the book he left of the. way. friday's attacks were targeted at migrants and muslims but their impact has been t.n.i. to all new zealanders in horror and sadness some echoed the prime minister's call for urgent action on guns i think we should ban all guns in new zone danny people today have guns is the place and the armed forces to receive be obeyed it does made of a saying gan or well one thing. to haines on all guns why they should be obeying those who came to pay tribute saw the police working nearby they saw the hearses to arriving and leaving regularly collecting both from the al nor mosque this tribute has grown steadily over the course of saturday hundreds of.

people have been down here. in quiet contemplation there are of course very serious questions still to be answered but there's also grief. to express after thomas al-jazeera postures right let's take you straight to paris the french capital now because for the eighteenth week consecutively. the yellow vests are out on the streets in the heart of the capital as you can see the up the trails they are protesting as you can see there's quite a bit of damage as well there are reports of looting and of arrests as being quite a bit of tear gas being used by the french security forces but. also accused of throwing objects some of them of look like stones at the police now this is a protest that you may recall began over a proposed increase in the price of diesel fuel it's ever so since it's grown it's

morphed into something much more than that it's something against the the government of emanuel macro they say that they are anti elitist so this is the scene live in the heart of the french capital where a lot of damage has been done just today seen live in paris. right let's go to venezuela now where businesses are slowly reopening after days of a nationwide electricity blackout the other battle for power though that's continuing in the capital between the president and the opposition leader to raise a bow reports from the capital caracas. boxes of food ready to be distributed in venezuela. where the government's way of handing out subsidized food as the country struggles with the consequences of a long running crisis. because of the economic war cybernetic war rather territorial leaders that give away the boxes to the people. venezuela is recovering

from. power outage that left most of the country in the dark for several days still millions of people are struggling for water and the many other parts of the country the government used to distribute this. year every month but now they're doing it every fifteen days because of the economic crisis is inside there's other beans rice some flour or among other things. we have spoken to say that it's not enough. as they are known here are the only way most have to survive they're sold for a few cents of a dollar much cheaper if people were to get the same items in a supermarket. but just like water these days and many other things in. the boxes do not reach everyone in need. and won't be getting a clap box this month. i can't survive like this tried to see how to sustain myself

my daughter is helping me but she couldn't get the clock box this month everything is extremely difficult for us these days. still claims he's the country's legitimate interest president his bid for power has the support of the united states and dozens of countries. he continues to take to the streets almost every day calling on the military to rebel against i we're not begging we're demanding our right as citizens and knowing there are risks in a dictatorship like this one we see the government smiling what are they laughing at when the people are starving. but for now the military won't give in to whitelist call they remain loyal to the government even though the opposition has promised to forgive many of the crimes they're accused off. the opposition of the united states are wrong when they think that the military are defending nicolas

maduro they're defending themselves because they're part of the government this is military and civilian rule where they play a crucial role and all the things that you can blame the government for you can also blame them. giving away food has been the government's way of winning times in the middle of economic trouble but the political crisis is not over and nobody really knows how long it will last. in the karada fifty prisoners who were held for taking part in anti-government protests have now been released as part of an attempt at talks to end a long running political crisis relatives gathered outside the maximum security prison to welcome them but the prisoners were released out of sight then remain under house arrest more than seven hundred people have been detained since april last year at least three hundred twenty five people were killed during rallies which school for president danny almonte has resignation the opposition alliance

a dial up against russia's current catch you know. this was a more competitive match the opening set was close but an adult took it on a tie break i know for the first time in his career he needed some treatment for a knee injury but the doctor patched him up and he went on to claim victory setting up the match everybody wanted to see in california the tao versus federer the two most successful players in history with thirty seven grand slams between them i want to play and i am sometimes probably my my biggest rival and. i believe that ages in our career and i was. just a pleasure and just an opportunity to keep competing that's true you know if i play rough or there is extra energy in the building extra energy for both of us there's always a lot on the line we'd have done so much promotional stuff for you know for the tour charity stuff matches you know legendary matches that you know brought history
